How Do You Talk To An Angel: A Verdine White Appreciation Post

verdine How Do You Talk To An Angel: A Verdine White Appreciation Post

There’s a certain regal quality Verdine White has that I have always admired.

He carries himself with the same poise that was common with the devoted wives of store front church preachers across the south in the 80′s. I am willing to bet that there is a jar of Fashion Fair facial cream in his bathroom cabinet.

When its all said and done, I hope that whatever he has rubs off on me some way. Hell, you too. This includes the ever-present shine from his forehead.

One thing that should always be noted when discussing The Great Verdini is that he isn’t just stunning looks. Unlike the celebrated Instagram socialites of today, he has an actual talent. The legendary Earth, Wind & Fire bassist was interviewed last month by the Grammy Foundation at the An Evening with Verdine White event.

Along with colorful music industry tales, I hope his beauty secrets were also divulged.

Now Playing: Sweet Brown Made A Commercial For A Personal Injury Lawyer

Ain’t nothing more important than the mula! YouTube sensation Sweet Brown is five steps from eternity, four steps past love and three wishes from appearing in the next movie to come out of the ‘Madea’ franchise. Get into BL’s sassy finger wag at the 20 second mark, though. Bury me a G.

Open For Discussion: Cousin Dionne

dionne11 Open For Discussion: Cousin Dionne

Cousin Dionne ranks second as the most-charted female vocalist in Billboard with 56 singles — right behind Hate-Retha. Regardless, Honey Badger’s accomplishments as both an entertainer and global ambassador deserve several nasty Leyomi drops and finger wags. Celebrating her 50th anniversary in music, she was recognize by the Grammy Museum this week with a special event held in her honor.

And boy, did she serve the kids fashion and mane.

Joanna: Rodman-esque. She was shooting in the gym.

Tiesha: Forget the hair, dive into those silky pajamas!

Malcolm: Girl, Miss Dionne is not featuring any of you. She is going to finish this and go back home to a pack of Mistys, a gin and tonic and nice game of spades.

Leslie: Cousin Dionne gracefully commands all your favs to come for her, while simultaneously paying homage to the now extinct dodo bird with her hairdo. Now gag!

Sexual Napalm: Ashford & Simpson

napalm1 Sexual Napalm: Ashford & Simpson

Your cooperation in forwarding this post to Bobby Valentino would be much appreciated. Now this is how you rock a plunging neckline on a red carpet the proper way! Under normal circumstances I would hit a *Tyler Perry curtsy* right now but I am afraid of being stoned to death after his appearance on Oprah last week.

But I digress.

I love both of my parents dearly but I would have loved to trade them in for a week or so for Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson during my high school years. The first order of business would be  a parent teacher conference with all my instructors so I could sit back and watch them squirm around in their seats.

I am quite confident that at some point during the conference Nick would  have to run his hands through his hair in  order to cool down his frustration over being  mistaken for a cafeteria worker and leave traces of Pink Oil Moisturizer on everything he touched thereafter.
